Ik wull all Duennerdagh op de fraagh oever dat "knief" antern, boen blot bit
voendaaghs no ni darto kaamen. Een "knief" bruk wi no wul in Rendsborg man
is dat een groot 'knief", darmet kans een brot snieden un annere grote
stuecken, een "mess" is luetter un wi bruk dat alleen bi't eten, geis op
reisen denn nuemms gern een knief met denn darmet kans alens tweisnieden, in
restaurant kreegs een mess, dar woell man jaa een beten voerneem ween. Min
moder haett mi dat no soelvens so bibroech, een mess bruks bi't eten, een
knief bruks to'n brot snieden. Vun dar meen ik meist dat "knief" een ol
sassisch word is wat ok de Angelsassen metnaam heb no Engeland, mess is ers
in't 19ste jaahunnert naa Slesvig-Holsten kaamen met "voerneemere
etens-manieren", as man dat denn so sehen woell. Froeher op lannen harrn se
blot een lepel un knief to'n eten, voer "boenen un beeren", speck snieden
oder fleederbeersupp bruks keen "Gabel und Messer".

Groeten

Leeve Lowlanners,

uns nieget LS-Woord vandoog:

*britzen* - E: to flit, to run/drive fast; G: flitzen, schnell
laufen/fahren.

Waard noch veel bruukt in uns LS ("Hei britz' lous mit siin neu' Meschin." -
"He rushed away with his new bike.").

Is dat woll verwandt an E: 'breeze', G: 'Brise'?

Kennt Ji annern Lowlanners dat ook?

Greutens/sincerely

Johannes "Jonny" Meibohm
